Chinese robotics giant PUDU Robotics showcased all six of its robot product lines together for the first time at its European Partner Summit, including the D7 semi-humanoid robot with an eight-hour runtime, the Nvidia-powered D5 robot dog, and the cat-inspired BellaBot Pro service robot.The summit took place at the Van der Valk Amsterdam-Amstel in the Netherlands, on Wednesday, November 4. During the event, the Shenzhen-based firm unveiled its new “One Brain, Multiple Embodiments” strategy.Felix Zhang, PUDU Robotics’ founder and CEO, said the strategy will use the same artificial intelligence (AI) technology across all of its products. He said that robots must become smarter, easier to deploy, and cheaper to achieve wider adoption.“With our ‘One Brain, Multiple Embodiments’ strategy, we are building a shared technological foundation across different robot forms – from specialized service robots to semi-humanoid and humanoid robots,” Zhang said. In the spotlightThe PUDU D7, a semi-humanoid robot that relies on wheels to move and human-like arms to handle objects, was a crowd favorite at the event. First introduced in September 2024, the robot is 5.4 feet (1.65 meters) tall and weighs about 99 lbs (45 kilograms). It can operate continuously for more than eight hours on a battery exceeding one kilowatt-hour (kWh). At the same time, it features 30 degrees of freedom, which can raise to 50 with a dexterous hand attachment. Its robotic arms can lift up to 22 lbs, while its wheels allow it to move in any direction. It can transport objects, sort items, and even use elevators in workplaces such as offices, warehouses, and factories.

The robot dogs use two LiDAR sensors and four fisheye cameras to spot obstacles and navigate their surroundings. The company underscored that they can deliver up to 275 trillion operations per second (TOPS) of computing performance. Both models can climb slopes of up to 45 degrees and carry between 44 and 66 lbs (20 and 30 kilograms) while walking.The BellaBot Pro, a cat-like delivery robot, with an interactive screen that displays playful facial expressions, was also among the highlights. Built for restaurants and other commercial spaces, it delivers food and interacts with customers.A diverse robotics lineupThe company also displayed more machines for workplaces, factories, and homes, including the CC1 PRO, which can sweep, scrub, vacuum, and mop floors. Also, for industrial purposes, it exhibited the MP2000, an autonomous robot that can carry pallets weighing up to 4,409 lbs (2,000 kilograms) and insert its forks into them in just 20 seconds.PUDU also introduced its outdoor robots, including the GT series for businesses and TOMO S series for homeowners. Made for home lawn care, this is the firm’s first consumer robotics product.

Bella Sun, PUDU Robotics VP and GM for Europe, shared with Interesting Engineering (IE) that the company wants Europe to be among the first markets to adopt its new strategy. “We see huge potential in the European market,” Sun told IE. “The direction is pretty clear. Customers across Europe are becoming more open to robotics technology.”At the same time, Zhang also stressed that the goal is to support human workers rather than replace them. He also addressed the company’s future in the US amid new restrictions affecting Chinese robotics products.“The FCC regulation is only for new products, meaning all of our existing products can be sold in the US,” he concluded. “[But] I want our robots working everywhere in the world.”
